Just time for a quick ten minutes and then off to dinner.
I’ve been writing for a good deal of the day. Well, researching actually. I’ve been trying to close up this last project before break and before taking a break to work on some non-sci-fi writing. I want to get stronger with my fantasy game. That starts with world building, but it also extends to finding a voice in that world and finding out more about the world and how I intend to tell the stories of the world.
Fantasy and Sci-fi are actually quite similar. It makes sense that they are lumped together in that they are both about exploring new worlds and the histories of those worlds and reflecting on how those histories shape their present and lead to their future. Technology aside (of course, any significantly advanced tech is indistinguishable from magic) the storytelling is similar. It is like slipping into a different pair of shoes, but they are still shoes.
So, I’m going to slip into these other shoes and get into discovering these other tales, but at the core I will be writing Talislegger stories, like I always do.
